Unsettled weather conditions made the KZ World Championship, held at Portimao in southern Portugal, extremely difficult. Qualifying was run on rain tyres that were particularly difficult to understand and use, and the KR Motorsport team were unable to get to the front of the field straight away. In the second half of the event, however, the team's performance on a dry track was clearly up to scratch, with Stan Pex, Danilo Albanese and Paolo Ippolito all making it into the top 10.

The incredible 2024 World Championship held in Great Britain on the PFI circuit had two major highlights: firstly, the two Finals ended in unexpected last-lap upsets, and secondly, the KR-IAME teams put in a particularly impressive overall performance. Kenzo Craigie became OK-Junior World Champion, while James Anagnostiadis secured the Prema Racing team's one-two finish ahead of Rocco Coronel (VictoryLane). In OK, KR Motorsport took the team title after Joe Turney finished runner-up in the World Championship.

Danilo Albanese put up a tough fight in July in Spain to claim 2nd place with the fastest lap of the race in his high-performance KR-IAME. Motivated by the idea of retaining his FIA Karting European KZ Championship crown when he arrived at the Val Vibrata circuit for the finale of this highly-anticipated event, the Italian driver immediately demonstrated his competitiveness by taking pole position. Unfortunately, his title hopes were dashed at the first corner of the first heat! However, the team's overall result in Abruzzo means that KR Motorsport remains in contention for the team title in 2024.

In the most competitive category of karting, bringing together the world's greatest hopefuls destined to move on to single-seater racing, Jimmy Hélias was one of the best performing drivers throughout the 2024 FIA Karting European Championship in OK. At the wheel of his VictoryLane KR-IAME, the 15-year-old Frenchman frequently battled for the podium, while continuing to work with his partners to build a promising sporting future.

Kart Republic has just taken the number of FIA European Karting Championship titles won in the OK category to six out of seven attempts since the Italian brand launched in 2018. At the final round in Kristianstad, Sweden, the KR-IAME packages were impressively successful: Joe Turney celebrated his first crown at this level with another win secured by a healthy margin; Fionn McLaughlin finished 3rd in the Final; Thibaut Ramaekers claimed Championship bronze in his first season in OK. In OK-Junior, Noah Baglin took 3rd place on the podium and was the top rookie in the overall standings, in which Iacopo Martinese came 3rd, as he did in 2023.
